...even before I dared to ask they welcomed my dog! They made me feel as in higher class hotel still having all jobs done precisely as a Swiss watch. Excellent people and professionals in an really fabulous environment. MUST SEE!

Excellent experince. had a bit of a rushed trip cause time was running out but the cable car ride was great. Our tour guide kept saying "keep your eyes pealed for bears"...but no such luck. We did spot bears, later on in our trip though

Absolutely not a waste of money! For some the price can be off putting but please don't penny pinch on this activity. I live in Banff area, and it is worth it every time.

We were surprised to find such a beautiful facility at the top of the gondola. There are four floors to explore, interesting movies and interactive displays. Boardwalk amongst the pine trees out to another viewing area. Bistro and cafeteria. We spent over two hours up there. Highly recommended!!

We purchased the Sky Bistro dining package and it was terrible. Food was very average. Gratuity was included (but not mentioned anywhere) so the service was poor. We added a desert, but were charged for the appetizer because it was costlier than the desert. Manager Kira was very unprofessional. Way overpriced!!

Helpful?

Thank Scott P
